Yeah, as I mentioned in another thread, the issue is that we have to get
the koji to generate the deltarpms and bodhi to publish them.  It was
originally on the list of things to get done before F8, but then other
tasks that took higher priority took longer than expected.

The goal now (at least as far as I understand it) is to get the buildsys
stuff done and then presto-enable the F8 repository.
